    Hello,
    I have a problem that has been consuming me for months.
    I have a 2Dof with Arduino Uno, code SMC3, and wiper motors.
    The movement of the motors is as expected, but there is a range of approximately 30% (normally with negative values) where I do not get a response, but when I exceed a certain value, the movement becomes abrupt to recover the "missing values".

    When I run SMC3 Utils I have no problem, the movements of the motors are faithful to the entire range of motion.

    I have checked if it is a problem of the connection between simtools and arduino. I have also checked if it is a problem with the pots.
    If it's a power supply problem. If it is the baud rate, the windows region, ..

    I have checked and read the tutorials, but I think I must be doing something wrong.

    Thanks for your quick reply Noorbeast.

    The truth is that this morning I have been reading the post about the 2004 update óof windows. It may be this. I will investigate what updates I have made in the past.

    EDIT:
    I have already read the whole post about the win10 2004 update problem. We have to wait for a solution from Sim tools.

    Noorbeast, i'm going to give you an apartment in Marbella, jijiji.
    After several moths trying without success, my sim motion moves faithfull to the movements of the games.
    I have installed version 2.0 and it works correctly.
    Thank you very much Noorbeast.
